1.	A Seller Gains The Cost Of 40 Dozen Apples By Selling 25 Dozen Of Apples. Find Out The Gain Percent?
Answer» Given Cost PRICE (C.P) of 40 dozen of apples is EQUAL to selling (S.P) of 25 dozen of apples. Let the C.P of 1 dozen of apple = Rs.1 Therefore C.P of 25 dozen apples = Rs. 25 and C.P of 40 dozen apples = Rs.40 => C.P of 40 dozen of apples = S.P of 25 dozen apples = Rs.40 PROFIT % = (S.P of 25 dozen apples - C.P of 25 dozen apples) / C.P of 25 dozen apples * 100% = {(40 - 25) / 25} * 100% = {15 / 25} * 100% = 60% Therefore, required Profit % = 60 % Given Cost price (C.P) of 40 dozen of apples is equal to selling (S.P) of 25 dozen of apples.

Given

Cost PRICE (C.P) of 40 dozen of apples is EQUAL to selling (S.P) of 25 dozen of apples.

Let the C.P of 1 dozen of apple = Rs.1

Therefore C.P of 25 dozen apples = Rs. 25

and C.P of 40 dozen apples = Rs.40

=> C.P of 40 dozen of apples = S.P of 25 dozen apples = Rs.40

PROFIT % = (S.P of 25 dozen apples - C.P of 25 dozen apples) / C.P of 25 dozen apples * 100%

= {(40 - 25) / 25} * 100%

= {15 / 25} * 100%

= 60%

Therefore, required Profit % = 60 %
